Garlic & Herb Cottage Cheese Flatbreads
Prep time: 10 mins | Cook time: 10 mins | Servings: 4-6 flatbreads
Ingredients
The Base:
-
1 cup Cottage cheese (Full fat works best for creaminess)
-
2 Large eggs
-
1 ½ cups All-purpose flour (or Oat flour for a gluten-free twist)
-
1 tsp Baking powder
-
½ tsp Salt
The Flavor Boosters:
-
¼ cup Fresh herbs, finely chopped (Parsley, dill, or scallions work beautifully)
-
2 cloves Garlic, minced
-
¼ cup Shredded mozzarella or crumbled feta (optional, for extra “pull”)
-
Butter or Oil for the pan
Instructions
-
Blend the Base: For a smooth, bread-like texture, pulse the cottage cheese and eggs in a blender or food processor until completely smooth.
-
Pro Tip: If you like little “pockets” of cheese, skip the blender and just whisk them together.
-
-
Mix the Dough: In a medium bowl, combine the blended mixture with the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic, and fresh herbs. Stir until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
-
Shape: Divide the dough into 4–6 equal portions. With lightly floured hands, flatten them into discs about ½ inch thick.
-
Cook: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with a little butter or oil. Place the flatbreads in the pan (don’t overcrowd).
-
Sear to Perfection: Cook for 3–4 minutes per side. You’re looking for that deep golden-brown crust shown in your photo and a slight rise from the baking powder.
-
Serve: Best enjoyed warm! They pair perfectly with a dollop of Greek yogurt, sour cream, or even a bit of chili oil.
